Installation
GB
! Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future
reference. Should the appliance be sold, transferred or
moved, make sure the instruction manual accompanies the
washing machine to inform the new owner as to its operation
and features.
! Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital
information on installation, use and safety.
Unpacking and levelling
Unpacking
! This is a separate part of
the polystyrene base and
should be removed with
the base.
! IMPORTANT check
when unpacking your
machine.
1. Unpack the washing machine.
2. Check whether the washing machine has been
damaged during transport. If this is the case, do not install
it and contact your retailer.
3. Remove the 4 protective
screws and the rubber bush
with the respective spacer,
situated on the rear of the
appliance (see also the
installation leaflet).
2. If the floor is not perfectly level, compensate for any
unevenness by tightening or loosening the adjustable
front feet (see figure); the angle of inclination, measured
according to the worktop, must not exceed 2°.
Levelling your appliance correctly will provide it with
stability and avoid any vibrations, noise and shifting
during operation. If it is placed on a fitted or loose carpet,
adjust the feet in such a way as to allow enough room for
ventilation beneath the washing machine.
Electric and water connections
Connecting the water inlet hose
1. Connect the supply pipe
by screwing it to a cold
water tap using a
3/4 gas threaded
connection (see figure).
Before performing the
connection, allow the
water to run freely until it is
perfectly clear.
2. Connect the other end of
the water inlet hose to the
washing machine,
screwing it onto the
appliance’s cold water inlet,
situated on the top righthand side on the rear of the
appliance (see figure).
4. Seal the gaps using the plastic plugs provided.
5. Keep all the parts: you will need them again if the
washing machine needs to be moved to another location.
! Packaging materials are not children’s toys.
Levelling
Your machine may make a considerable amount of noise if
the two front feet have not been adjusted correctly.
1. Install the washing machine
on a flat sturdy floor, without
resting it up against walls,
furniture cabinets or other.
2
3. Make sure there are no kinks or bends in the hose.
! The water pressure at the tap must be within the values
indicated in the Technical details table (on the page 5).
! If the water inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialist store or an authorised serviceman.
! Ensure that the supply taps are allowing water through.
Old taps may seize in the closed position and thus
prevent water reaching the machine.
! Never use second-hand or old inlet hoses; use the
products supplied with the machine.
Connecting the drain hose
65 - 100 cm
Where it connects to
the waste water pipe
cut end off spigot or
remove the blanking cap
Connect the drain hose,
without bending it, to a
draining duct or a wall drain
situated between 65 and
100 cm from the floor;
The drain hose may
be connected to an
under-sink trap. Before
connecting the drain
hose from the machine
ensure that any blanks or
removable ends have been
taken off the spigot.
If it is placed over the edge
of a basin or sink be sure
the free end of the hose
should not be underwater.
! We advise against the use of hose extensions; in case of
absolute need, the extension must have the same diameter
as the original hose and must not exceed 150 cm in length.
Ensure that if the drain hose is pushed into a standpipe, that
the end does not go down more than 15cms (6 inches).
If the hose is pushed down too far, this may cause the
machine to self -syphon ie. continuously empty as it is filling.
Electric connection
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, make
sure that:
• the socket is earthed and in compliance with the
applicable law;
• the supply voltage is included within the values indica-
ted on the Technical Data Plate fixed on the machine.
• the socket is compatible with the washing machine’s
plug. If this is not the case, replace the socket or the
plug.
Your appliance is now supplied with a 13 amp fused plug
it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use.
Before using the appliance please read the instructions
below.
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Replacing the fuse:
When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved
fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse
cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not
be used until a replacement is obtained.
Replacement fuse covers:
If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the
correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the
colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug.
Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest
Service Depot.
Removing the plug:
If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug
and you should wish to re-route the mains cable through
partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:
the plug is replaced by a fused 13 ampere rewireable plug
bearing the BSI mark of approval.
or:
the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable
outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS
5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.
Disposing of the plug:
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make
the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted
into a socket.
Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:
Green & Yellow Earth
Blue Neutral
Brown Live
GB
• the socket is able to sustain the appliance’s maximum
power load indicated on the Technical Data Plate fixed
on the machine;

As the colours of the wires in the lead may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your
plug, proceed as follows:
Connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal marked E or
or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.
Connect Brown wire to terminal marked L or coloured
Red.
Connect Blue wire to terminal marked N or coloured Black.
If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a
13 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the
distribution board.
If you are in any doubt regarding the electrical supply to
your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.
How to connect an alternative plug:
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
BLUE NEUTRAL (N)
BROWN LIVE (L)
GREEN & YELLOW EARTH (E)
The first wash cycle
Once the appliance has been installed, and before you use
it for the first time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no
laundry, using the wash cycle 2.
Disposing of the appliance:
When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug
by cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug
body and dispose of it as described above.
! The washing machine should not be installed in an
outdoor environment, not even where the area is sheltered,
because it may be very dangerous to leave it exposed to
damp, rain and thunderstorms.
! When the washing machine is installed, the mains socket
must be within easy reach.
! Do not use extensions or multiple sockets.
! The power supply cable must never be bent or
dangerously compressed.
! The power supply cable must only be replaced by an
authorised serviceman.
Warning! The company denies all liability if and when these
norms are not respected.
